Happy Hanukkah! Happy Christmas! Happy Solstice! Indeed, it’s that time of year again when the YIN gets longest and the YANG gets short. (That’s what she said. Badambum.) With the darkest days now becoming lighter once again, it is certainly a time of year for reflections, pauses, stillness, oh and rabidly ripping open presents, foaming at the mouth with egg nog, feasting on goodies and bracing yourself for family gatherings! Stop. Tadasana. Breathe.

“…the Yin energy on our planet is at its strongest and fullest expression culminating on the 21st when it slowly begins to wane with the emergence of the active and charged Yang energy. This is a slow process and transition but an important one. Why? Because this is a great time to catch the Yang wave and ride it into the next cycle. It is a wonderful time to lock in our dreams and aspirations and charge them with the primordial power of Yang energy which is emerging into our sphere.”

In order to do so we must make like Savasana and rest NOW, so you can set the stage for dream-living in the New Year. It’s that easy! But let’s just take it one TWIY at a time. Wishing you a whopping heap of joy for the holidays from the bottom of our rising yang. Hey-o.
